which shelters and illuminates a corner of the abbey grounds.

We’ve both found ruined abbeys to be the perfect place for an autumn walk.

Melrose is another 12th century Cistercian foundation. They knew how to choose a good site for a monastery!

The building that’s left is only a small part of the whole medieval monastery. It was a grand place!
